1 Nephi 4:1

1 And it came to pass that I spake unto my brethren, saying: Let us go up again unto Jerusalem, and let us be faithful in keeping the commandments of the Lord; for behold he is mightier than all the earth, then why not mightier than Laban and his fifty, yea, or even than his tens of thousands?

Entertainment and Media section of For the Strength of Youth

“Satan uses media to deceive you by making what is wrong and evil look normal, humorous, or exciting.” - For the Strength of Youth

Evolution is not man coming from monkeys.  It is change over time.  Media evolves in technology.  If we use it appropriately, it can help us evolve in knowledge.

Some use superstitious practices to ward off evil spirits.  The way to keep evil spirits away is to stand in holy places and make the places you stand holy.

The Holy Ghost is not always a voice.  Sometimes it is peace.  Sometimes it is feeling something or a thought.

The Restoration of the Aaronic and Melchizedek Priesthoods

Doctrine and Covenants 13

The Aaronic Priesthood holds the keys to the ministering of angels. This is the receiving ministrations, but also perhaps the directing of ministering angels.

Elder Dallin H Oaks’ talk, The Aaronic Priesthood and the Ministering of Angels

Elder Jeffrey R Holland’s talk, The Ministry of Angels.

The power of the Holy Ghost gives ministering angels the power to minister. 

“It makes perfect sense that when messengers are sent to minister to the inhabitants of this earth, they are not strangers. But from the ranks of our kindred and friends. In like manner, our fathers and mothers, brothers and sisters and friends who have passed away from this earth, who have been faithful and worthy, to enjoy these rights and privileges, may have a mission given to them to visit their relatives and friends upon the earth again, bringing from the divine presence messages of love, warning, or reproof and instruction to those who they had learned to love in the flesh”(Joseph F Smith, Gospel Doctrine, 5th ed. (1939), 436) 

“From the beginning down through the dispensations, God has used angels as His emissaries in conveying love and concern for His children.”

Doctrine and Covenants 20:7

7 And gave unto him commandments which inspired him;
